An Incident of the Revolution of 184? In France. The sight that presented itself was . the strangest 1 have ever seen and h;u remained in my memory almost a; vividly as If it were yesterday. Tlit magnificent apartmeats of the prUact were soon filled with as strange a se' of ruffians as you could meet any where. It seemed as if they were ai mad or drunk, and yet they were a: jolly as saud boys. They seemed posl tlvely to revel !n destruction and tc yell with delight as they smashed anc tor everything to pieces that the; came across. There was scarcely i picture that was not cut Into ribbons and ornaments, however costly, wen thrown down and broken to atoms. While I was standing in one of thi i grand apartments, looking on in wonder, a little man. with a sw.rd almost as big as himself, stood in front of f magnificent mirror that reached front the floor to the celling. He surveyed it for a moment, and then, as thougr he were about to storm a town slngU

banded, went deliberately up to it and with one blow of his great cavalrj blade shivered It to pieces. As thej fell at his feet he put on a grand aii and said "TaV as if this was one ol

Chicago, Aug. 20. Again comes Halley's comet, last seen In these parts 73

years ago by the pioneers of Chicago, and all is" expectancy up at the Yerkes observatory at Williams Bay, Wis., for

astronomers are now foregathering to

take the comet's picture for the first

time in its career, which dates from 12 B. C. Since its discovery then, this old comet has scared human beings more than any heavenly pirate, reappearing each 75 years. It was flaring in the skies when William the Conqueror invaded England in 100G and some historians say that it did as much to tame the Anglo Saxons as did the arms of the Normans, for it had them quivering with superstitious fear. Again in 145! the Catholic church bells were set ringing at midday to help folks keep their courage up, because Halley's comet was passing their way and they have rung at noon ever since. Thanks to old Neptune, which checked the comet's ungoverned flight through space and set it swinging in an orbit of a billion miles around the sun, it now is no menace to all the earth, for it has caught step with the sweep of the planets and is quite settled in its habits. It is a ball of metal 15 miles in diameter and now is beginning to come out of its sullen chill, for as the comet approaches the 6un the heat drives out metallic vapors of iron and magnesium, the heat increases and the hydrocarbons break up into smoke or soot and train behind. The bombardment of the sun's rays upon these minute soot particles lights them up in a silvery glow and also drives them out in a sweeping tail.

Woman "Fagin" Guides School of Crime For New York Children

New York, Aug. 20. In a dingy room on the fourth story of a ramshackle frame tenement, 102 Third avenue, three detectives burst in on a scene today that rivals any of Dickens' word pictures of the haunts of Fagin and his children pickpockets. The detectives say they have uncovered a nest of juvenile crime, an infant class in thievery, the like of which has never been brought to light before in New York. "Lil" Sullivan, notorious for her associations in the under world, presided as instructress over twelve youngsters, whose ages range from 13 to 21. For a second the three detectives could scarcely distinguish anything through the cigarette smoke, and then they saw seated in an old rocking

chair, like a schoolma'am at her desk, Lil Sullivan, surrounded by twelve boys, all pale, wizened, and ferret faced, as if unaccustomed to the light of day. Lil Sullivan is about S3 years old. and handsome. For a moment there was silence following the detectives' interruption; then all kinds of a fuss broke loose. The detectives drew their pistols and had the little company covered. Lil quieted her "infant class." "Quit that racket !" she cried. "What d'you want?" to the detectives. "We want you and the whole bunch, I guess," said Detective Corbett, "and we'd like to know what you're doing with all those rain coats," pointing to a pile on the floor.

"A friend of mine bought 'em at a Bale," said Lil glibly. But that didn't satisfy the detectives and they announced that the whole crew, Lil and all, would be taken to headquarters.

C'.jrj;i kYi'.hin a Church. Covehltho. Cve tula-s guuth of Lowestoft, is noted for its "church within a church." a further proof that the churches hereabout are out of all proportion to the needs of the present day population. The remains of the old church present a noble pile of Ivy covered ruins, celebrated for their picturesque beauty. Tbelr magnitude Indicates what a grand building it must have been and vouch for the former importance of thl little wayside village. The present church, which is quite large enough for the Tery few Inhabitants of the parish, is erected Inside the nave of the old church, of which it does not occupy one-hlf. London Globe.

"And, by the way, boy," continued the drummer, "if you will go down and get me some more letter paper you may keep a quarter out of that dollar." "Right away, majah, right away! Ill shuah bring you that ah stashnery," replied the boy as he bowed

low. "And while I think of it, boy," remarked the knight of the grip, "if you can bring out my trousers and have them pressed and back here Inside of an hour you can keep a half dollar at that dollar." "Ah suttinly can do dat ah same, colonel 'deed Ah kin!" quickly replied the youth, as he turned to go toward the door. "Wait a minute now, boy," Mr. Samples said as he walked over to his trunk, "if you can take oat this suit and have it pressed and back here in time for me to go to the Bijou tonight I'll let yon keep every cent of that dollar."
